Abstract
dc.description.abstract
Manganism has captured the imagination of neurologists for more than a century because of its
similarities to Parkinson disease and its indirect but seminal role in the l-dopa miracle. We present
unpublished footage of the original case series reported in Neurology (R) in 1967 by Mena and
Cotzias depicting the typical neurologic signs of manganism in 4 Chilean miners and their response
to high doses of l-dopa.
